I got asked on the bus this morning, if I was gay...out of the blue, by a total stranger--seriously, that's how this guy sitting next to me, started the "conversation." No hello, no how are you today, just, "I hope you don't mind my asking, but you're not gay, are you?"
Ey??? ![]()
Speaking of gays, I read where the bishop of the Church of England thinks gays should "repent." You know, those heels really do clash with that purse, guys--you should all be very ashamed of yourselves
.
What if a gay man or a lesbian is an atheist or Jewish? What, specifically, should he or she repent?
In the newspaper, I read where some bloke in Conneticuit showed up five days late for his dental appointment---naked. When police went to his home, the man claimed he'd been asleep all day--that's one helluva sleep walk!
And, where some father and son in Santa Rosa, California, aged 64 and 40 respectively, robbed a bank together. Well, everyone has to have a hobby, I suppose.
I read where North Korea is attacking US govt. websites, making it hard to access them--pfft. I've been on US govt. websites...how would they know? No big loss, there. Maybe if their websites are down, they'll stop playing solitare and get off their arses and actually do some work.
And, on the home front here, I got bawled out by a whingy UPS guy. I'd complained that he wasn't waiting for me to answer the door--which is true. Last time he knocked--once, very softly, and I yelled that I was coming...but by the time I got to my front door, he was already outside getting into his truck! That's not the first time he's done this to me, and I was seriously pissed off, 'cos that means I have to literally sit around and wait the next day, for him to show up.
Anyway, I got fed up with his impatient nonsense, and complained. Well, it seems today, that someone had locked the outside door downstairs, and he spent a full three minutes whinging to me, that he had to ring up his supervisor to tell them why he couldn't deliver my package...like I'd know--living on the second flippin' floor, that an outside door, that's down two flights of stairs and down a long hallway--that the downstairs door is going to be locked! 
Why do so many Americans seem to think that their fellow Yanks are feckin' clairvoyant???
I get that crap all the time, at my job: "We're eating dinner, you know." "Why are you calling me when I'm sick?" "He's working, you know." "I'm not working, you know."
Erm--trust me ya' little pukes, if I was clairvoyant, I'd not be telemarketing for a living, I'd be down at the local Off Track Betting shop, placing some bets on the Trifecta at Aqueduct or Belmot, or whatever.
And also today, at the same time the UPS guy was having a hissy-fit at me, my next door neighbour and his loud-mouth sister, were explaining to me why the hell they woke me up repeatedly at 4am. Seems the twat--who drives nightshift for a local cab company--had a drunk guy in his cab. Well, my neighbour decided that he had to use the loo, and parked--with the drunk in the cab--outside our apartment building, got out of the cab, and upstairs to his apartment to take a leak. Seems the drunk got lonely, and decided to follow my neighbour out of the cab, and take a loud and obnoxious 3.30am tour of our part of this mangy apartment building.

"It wasn't our fault you got woke up!" The guy next door's sister--standing there in her underpants--shouted through their open door at me. Yeah, like, that makes it OK then, and resloves you of all guilt?
So began my Wednesday.
And how is YOUR day going, so far?
